Agriculture

We headed over to the Sonoma County fairgrounds for the annual Ag Days~~  what fun!
...oh, and it was very educational.
We saw a K9 demonstration.  Learned about the dogs, how they train them, and what they use them for.


There was a lot of hands on--touching, petting, and feeding of the animals:)




After the sheep shearing, the girls were able to take home some of the wool.






Spinning demonstration---especially cool for the girls because they are learning to knit and this brought it full circle for their minds!
...........These piggies were born the morning before we got there!  So cute, and man could they squeal!!


Faith watched how horseshoes are made and played with some--she loved it!




....They got to shake cream until it made butter~~



Overall, it was an amazing and educational morning!!
